The --orphan option is used to create a local branch which is detached
from the current history. In git switch, it always resets to the empty
tree, and thus the only completion we can provide is a branch name.
Follow the same rules for -c/-C (and -b/-B) when completing the argument
to --orphan.
In the case of git switch, after we complete the argument, there is
nothing more we can complete for git switch, so do not even try. Nothing
else would be valid.
In the case of git checkout, --orphan takes a start point which it uses
to determine the checked out tree, even though it created orphaned
history.

A previous commit added several test cases highlighting the subpar
completion logic for -c/-C and -b/-B when completing git switch and git
checkout.
In order to distinguish completing the argument vs the start-point for
this option, we now use the wordlist to determine the previous full word
on the command line.
If it's -c or -C (-b/-B for checkout), then we know that we are
completing the argument for the branch name.
Given that a user who already knows the branch name they want to
complete will simply not use completion, it makes sense to complete the
small subset of local branches when completing the argument for -c/-C.
In all other cases, if -c/-C are on the command line but are not the
most recent option, then we must be completing a start-point, and should
allow completing against all references.
Update the -c/-C and -b/-B tests to indicate they now pass.

Current completion for the --track option of git switch and git checkout
is sub par. In addition to the DWIM logic of a bare branch name, --track
has DWIM logic to convert specified remote/branch names into a local
branch tracking that remote. For example
$git switch --track origin/master
This will create a local branch name master, that tracks the master
branch of the origin remote.
In fact, git switch --track on its own will not accept other forms of
references. These must instead be specified manually via the -c/-C/-b/-B
options.
Introduce __git_remote_heads() and the "remote-heads" mode for
__git_complete_refs. Use this when the --track option is provided while
completing in _git_switch and _git_checkout. Just as in the --detach
case, we never enable DWIM mode for --track, because it doesn't make
sense.
It should be noted that completion support is still a bit sub par when
it comes to handling -c/-C and --orphan. This will be resolved in
a future change.

a similar way to _git_switch.

Add a new --mode option to __git_complete_refs, which allows changing
the behavior to call __git_heads instead of __git_refs.
By passing --mode=heads, __git_complete_refs will only output local
branches. This enables using "--mode=heads --dwim" to enable listing
local branches and the remote unique branch names for DWIM.
Refactor completion support to use the new mode option, rather than
calling __git_heads directly. This has the advantage that we can now
correctly allow local branches along with suitable DWIM refs, rather
than only allowing DWIM when we complete all references.
Choose what mode it uses when calling __git_complete_refs. If -d or
--detach have been provided, then simply complete all refs, but
*without* the DWIM option as these DWIM names won't work properly in
--detach mode.
Otherwise, call __git_complete_refs with the default dwim_opt value and
use the new "heads" mode.
In this way, the basic support for completing just "git switch <TAB>"
will result in only local branches and remote unique names for DWIM.
The basic no-options tests for git switch, as well as several of the
-c/-C tests now pass, so remove the known breakage tags.

A new helper, __git_find_last_on_cmdline is introduced, similar to the
already existing __git_find_on_cmdline, but which operates in reverse,
finding the *last* matching word of the provided wordlist.
Use this in a new __git_checkout_default_dwim_mode() function that will
determine when to enable listing of DWIM remote branches.
The __git_find_last_on_cmdline() function is used to determine which
--guess or --no-guess is in effect. If either one is provided, then we
unconditionally enable or disable the DWIM mode based on the last
provided option.
If neither --guess nor --no-guess is provided, then we check for
--no-track, and finally for GIT_COMPLETION_CHECKOUT_NO_GUESS=1.
This function is then used in _git_switch and _git_checkout to improve
the handling for when we enable listing of these DWIM remote branches.
This new logic is more robust, as we will correctly identify superseded
options, and ensure that both _git_switch and _git_checkout enable DWIM
in similar ways.
We can now update a few tests to indicate they pass. A few of the tests
previously added to highlight issues with the old DWIM logic still fail.
This is because of a separate issue related to the default completion
behavior of git switch, which will be addressed in a future change.
Additionally, due to this change, a few tests for the -b/-B handling of
git checkout now fail. This is a minor regression, and will be fixed by
a following change that improves the overall handling of -b/-B. Mark
these tests as known breakages for now.

__git_complete_refs is the main function used for completing references.
It is primarily used as a wrapper around __git_refs, and is easier to
extend since its arguments are option-like.
One major downside of __git_complete_refs and __git_refs currently, is
the lack of ability to complete only a subset of refs such as branches
(refs/heads) or tags (refs/tags).
Normally, a caller might just decide to use __git_heads() or
__git_tags(). However, in the case of git-switch, it is useful to
complete both branches *and* DWIM remote branch names.
Due to the complexity and implementation of __git_refs, it is not easy
to extend it to support listing only a subset of references.
Instead, we can extend __git_complete_refs to do this. For this to be
done, we must first ensure that "--dwim" support is not tied to calling
__git_refs.
Instead of passing $dwim into __git_refs, we can implement
a __gitcomp_direct_append function which can append to COMPREPLY after
a call to __gitcomp_direct.
If --dwim is passed to __git_complete_refs, use __gitcomp_direct_append
to add the output of __git_dwim_remote_heads to the completion list.
In this way, --dwim support is now independent of calling __git_refs.
A future change will add an additional option to control what set of
references __git_complete_refs will output.

__git_refs() has the ability to report unique remote names for
supporting completion of remote branch names for the DWIMery of git
checkout and git switch.
For git checkout, this is fine, because it always supports completing
all local references.
However, git switch by default only supports either switching branches
or using this DWIMery to create a local branch tracking the remote
branch.
Future work to cleanup and improve completion support for git switch
will be aided if the remote branch names can be completed separately
from __git_refs.
Extract this logic to a function __git_dwim_remote_heads(), and use it
in __git_refs.

The __git_complete_refs uses the "--track" option to specify when to
enable listing of unique remote branches which are used by the DWIM
logic of git checkout and git switch.
Using the term '--track' here is confusing because the git commands
themselves have '--track' as an argument. Additionally, the completion
logic for _git_switch also checks for --track. Keeping the meaning of
track_opt and --track for __git_complete_refs straight from the --track
git switch and git checkout option is difficult when reading this code.
Use the option '--dwim' instead, indicating this is about enabling or
disabling logic related to DWIM mode. Also rename the local variable
track_opt to dwim_opt to further reduce the confusion when reading the
completion code for _git_switch.
Because it is plausible for users to have developed their own
completions which rely on __git_complete_ref, keep --track as a synonym
for --dwim, even though we no longer use it in any of the core git
completion logic. Add a comment explaining why it remains as an
alternative spelling for --dwim.

Similar to -c/-C, --orphan takes an argument which is the branch name to
use. We ought to complete this branch name using similar rules as to how
we complete new branch names for -c/-C and -b/-B. Namely, limit the
total number of options provided by completing to the local branches.
Additionally, git switch --orphan does not take any start point and will
always create using the empty-tree. Thus, after the branch name is
completed, git switch --orphan should not complete any references.

When using the branch creation argument for git switch or git checkout
(-c/-C or -b/-B), the commands switch to a different mode: `git switch
-c <branch> <some-referance>` means to create a branch named <branch> at
the commit referred to by <some-reference>.
When completing git switch or git checkout, it makes sense to complete
the branch name differently from the start point.
When completing a branch, one might consider that we do not have
anything worth completing. After all, a new branch must have an entirely
new name. Consider, however, that if a user names branches using some
similar scheme, they might wish to name a new branch by modifying the
name of an existing branch.
To avoid overloading completion for the argument, it seems reasonable to
complete only the local branch names and the valid "Do What I Mean"
remote branch names.

When the --track option is provided to git switch or git checkout, and
no branch is specified by -c or -b, git will interpret the tracking
branch to determine the local branch name to use. This "Do What I Mean"
logic is similar but distinct from the default DWIM logic of
interpreting a unique remote branch name as a request to create and
track that branch.
For example, `git switch --track origin/master` is interpreted as
a request to create a local branch named master that is tracking
origin/master.
The current completion for git checkout in this regard is only somewhat
poor:
$git checkout --track <TAB>
HEAD
master
matching-branch
matching-tag
other/branch-in-other
other/master-in-other
At least it still includes remote references. The clutter from including
all references isn't too bad.
However, git switch completion is terrible:
$git switch --track <TAB>
master
matching-branch
It only shows local branches, not even allowing any form of completion
of the remote references!
Add tests which highlight the expected behavior of completing --track on
its own.
Note that when -c/-C or -b/-B are provided we do expect completing more
references, but this will be discussed in a future change that addresses
these options specifically.

When completing words for git switch, the completion function correctly
disables the DWIM remote branch names when in the '--detach' mode. These
DWIM remote branch names will not work when the --detach option is
specified, so it does not make sense to complete them.

branch names in this case.

When provided with a single argument that is the name of a remote branch
that does not yet exist locally, both git switch and git checkout can
interpret this as a request to create a local branch that tracks that
remote branch. We call this behavior "Do What I Mean", or DWIM for
short.
To aid in using this DWIM, it makes sense for completion to list these
unique remote branch names when completing possible arguments for git
switch and git checkout. Indeed, both _git_checkout and _git_switch
implement support for completing such DWIM branch names.
In other words, in addition to the usual completions provided for git
switch, this "DWIM" logic means completion will include the names of
branches on remotes that are unique and thus there can be no ambiguity
of which remote to track when creating the local branch.
However, the DWIM logic is not always active. Many options, such as
--no-guess, --no-track, and --track disable this DWIM logic, as they
cause git switch and git checkout to behave in different modes.
Additionally, some completion users do not wish to have tab completion
include these remote names by default, and thus introduced
GIT_COMPLETION_CHECKOUT_NO_GUESS as an optional way to configure the
completion support to disable this feature of completion support.
For this reason, _git_checkout and _git_switch have many rules about
when to enable or disable completing of these remote refs. The two
commands follow similar but not identical rules.
Set aside the question of command modes that do not accept this DWIM
logic (--track, -c, --orphan, --detach) for now. Thinking just about the
main mode of git checkout and git switch, the following guidelines will
help explain the basic rules we ought to support when deciding whether
to list the remote branches for DWIM in completion.
1. if --guess is enabled, we should list DWIM remote branch names, even
if something else would disable it
2. if --no-guess, --no-track or GIT_COMPLETION_CHECKOUT_NO_GUESS=1,
then we should disable listing DWIM remote branch names.
3. Since the '--guess' option is a boolean option, a later --guess
should override --no-guess, and a later --no-guess should override
--guess.
Putting all of these together, add some tests that highlight the
expected behavior of this DWIM logic.

When provided with no options, git switch only allows switching between
branches. The one exception to this is the "Do What I Mean" logic that
allows a unique remote branch name to be interpreted as a request to
create a branch of the same name that is tracking that remote branch.
Unfortunately, the logic for the completion of git switch results in
completing not just branch names, but also pseudorefs like HEAD, tags,
and fully specified <remote>/<branch> references.
For example, we currently complete the following:
$git switch <TAB>
HEAD
branch-in-other
master
master-in-other
matching-branch
matching-tag
other/branch-in-other
other/master-in-other
Indeed, if one were to attempt to use git switch with some of these
provided options, git will reject the request:
$git switch HEAD
fatal: a branch is expected, got 'HEAD
$git switch matching-tag
fatal: a branch is expected, got tag 'matching-tag'
$git switch other/branch-in-other
fatal: a branch is expected, got remote branch 'other/branch-in-other'
Ideally, git switch without options ought to complete only words which
will be accepted. Without options, this means to list local branch names
and the unique remote branch names without their remote name pre-pended.
$git switch <TAB>
branch-in-other
master
master-in-other
matching-branch
Add a test case that highlights this subpar completion. Also add
a similar test for git checkout completion that shows that due to the
complex nature of git checkout, it must complete all references.

We hacked around that to handle deletions back in 24ab81ae4d
(add-interactive: handle deletion of empty files, 2009-10-27). But `git
add -p` would never see a new file, since we only consider the set of
tracked files in the index.
However, since the same machinery was used for `git checkout -p` &
friends, we can see new files.
Handle this case specifically, adding a new prompt for it that is
modeled after the `deleted file` case.
This also fixes the problem where added _empty_ files could not be
